Useful

Really glad that this app exists, especially since Dell Mobile Connect is being discontinued. The notifications from my iPhone don’t seem to be syncing to my computer though (and it would be great to be able to use it while connected to VPNs) :(

What I’ve Always Wanted

What I’ve always wanted and needed, but never knew existed. A way for me to get videos and images off of my iPhone and onto my Linux PC. Even my Windows PCs struggle to connect to my iPhone’s internal storage and maintain a stable or consistent connection so I can easily move things off of my phone with having to bother with or figure out iTunes.

One thing I wish it had, which keeps me from giving it 5 stars, is the ability to transfer multiple files at a time, or at the very least tweak this thing so it can queue up multiple videos or images at a time. Maybe it can, maybe it’s just not working for me at the moment, but it’s tedious to have to transfer videos one at a time, over and over. I’d love to just select all I want, hit go and let it send it all to my computer. Otherwise, the fact this works and exists at all is an easy solid 4/5 stars, could not be happier for KDE Connect’s existence.

Can we get a widget for the app

Think this app could really benefit from a good home screen widget. Shows share files and battery life of a connected device.

The next step in productivity

KDE Connect has allowed me to practically airdrop stuff not only to my Linux devices but also my Mac and other apple devices synchronizing my work flow. There is so much more to the app that can only be understood through experience. Even if you don't use Linux I still highly recommend KDE Connect for apple too.

It just works

Amazing job done by the KDE devs, Keep up the good work!

Almost perfect

The app is great and I absolutely love the remote trackpad, but I wish there were support for multi-touch gestures and click and hold.
I also wish it would have a remote keyboard, a second display function (to use my iPad as a 2nd screen for my laptop) and a cpu power state manager built into the app.
Other than that, no issue and I'm thinking about switching to kubuntu because of this app.

As expected, it works

This is a great app for connecting to your computer. I’m excited to see what gets added in the future.

Excellent

Works very very well. Can’t wait for sms to be supported, as well as running in the background, to make this complete.

AWESOME

Finally, Airdrop on my PC. Over the last few years I have been in agony, being forced to send all of my links and files through email when I want to send things to my phone. KDE Connect has given me such a wonderful experience with more features than I even thought were possible. TERMINAL CONTROL?? CURSOR CONTROL?? Oh my goodness. This app is truly beautiful.

Really good app

It’s so nice to use kde desktop and kde connect, It makes my life so much easier! Though it seems either kde connect sms takes a while or doesn’t work. Still though, great app, use it on manjaro Linux and having a good time :D

Response from developer

Sadly KDE Connect SMS isn’t supported on iOS at this time, sorry about that!
